Explanation:
If you're migrating from Shopify to WooCommerce, you'll need to set up Clearpay on your new WooCommerce store. Since Clearpay integration works differently on each platform, you’ll need to remove Clearpay from Shopify and install it correctly on WooCommerce. This guide walks you through the transition process.
1. Disconnecting Clearpay from Shopify
Before setting up Clearpay on WooCommerce, you should remove it from your Shopify store.
Action:
- Log in to your Shopify Admin Dashboard.
- Navigate to Settings > Payments.
- Under the Alternative Payment Methods section, locate Clearpay.
- Click Deactivate Clearpay and confirm the removal.
After completing these steps, Clearpay will no longer be available on your Shopify store.
2. Setting Up Clearpay on WooCommerce
Now that you’ve removed Clearpay from Shopify, you’ll need to install and configure it for WooCommerce.
Action:
- Log in to your WordPress Admin Dashboard.
- Navigate to Plugins > Add New and search for Clearpay Gateway for WooCommerce.
- Click Install Now and then Activate the plugin.
- Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Payments and enable Clearpay.
- Enter your Clearpay API credentials (Merchant ID and Secret Key).
- Configure on-site messaging to display Clearpay’s payment option on product and checkout pages.
- Save your settings and complete a test transaction to ensure Clearpay is properly integrated.
3. Additional Considerations
- If you’re migrating existing orders from Shopify to WooCommerce, note that Clearpay transactions cannot be transferred between platforms. Any active Clearpay orders on Shopify will still be managed through your Clearpay merchant portal.
- Ensure that your WooCommerce theme supports Clearpay messaging, or manually add the Clearpay logo to your product and checkout pages.
- Verify that your new store’s currency settings match Clearpay’s supported currencies.
Important Notes:
- Clearpay does not allow duplicate integrations for the same business. Make sure you’ve disconnected it from Shopify before setting it up on WooCommerce.
- Some WooCommerce themes may require additional customization to display Clearpay correctly.
